dumblonde Senior Member 2352 Posts 7/00	Posted - Dec 19 2004 : 10:06PM Tricia mentioned this one in another thread but I didn't want to hijack it. Kudos to Chi Chi, Julian, Kurt Lockwood, Voodoo, Nicole and everyone involved, this is something that many have been wanting to see for a loooong time. This str8 chick will definitely be checking it out :) AVN article on Str8 Shots [Link]

respect Member 200 Posts 11/04	Posted - Dec 20 2004 : 4:13AM Of course masturbation is neither a gay nor a straight practice because there is nobody else involved. But i doubt that a lot of women will rent this movie. Couples prefer lesbian porn (Andrew Blake) and single women don't watch porn at all ;) Edited by - respect on 12/21/2004 3:00:02 AM [Link]

GaySatyr Senior Member Half dirty ol' man; half horny ol' goat! 1684 Posts 10/00	Posted - Dec 20 2004 : 4:45AM The AVN article mentions Julian's work in gay videos as Jordan Rivers. He also worked under the name London Kane. To the best of my knowledge, none of the others in this video has ever appeared in material aimed at gay fans. To all of you, "Welcome, and thank you."

dumblonde Senior Member 2352 Posts 7/00	Posted - Dec 20 2004 : 11:35PM I debated on whether to post it here or in the gay forum, but I thought some females would be interested in this as well. I've really liked what I've seen from Chi Chi. She has an eye for good looking guys, never uses scrubs, and getting mostly straight guys in something like this is a first, isn't it? Maybe she had to pay them well because I see that it's in the $40 range, so I might wait or rent it first. [Link]
GaySatyr Senior Member Half dirty ol' man; half horny ol' goat! 1684 Posts 10/00	Posted - Dec 21 2004 : 12:07PM Everything aimed at gay audiences is overpriced. And LaRue has never been one to scrimp on budgets, at least, when s/he's bragging about the amount spent. (I figure you divide whatever s/he claims by 10 to get a realistic figure.) However, LaRue has directed some good porn (along with a tremendous amount of schlock). ~ GaySatyr (ABB) [Link]

Only award-winning director Chi Chi LaRue could convince these beautiful men to strip, stroke and shoot for their fans on the "other side of the fence! They get so into stroking their huge cocks, that they forget they're being filmed, go into a state of ecstasy and cum all over the place in one of the hottest jack-off films in memory."

I have "Skin Trade" here now. In the BTS, a scene is going on, and he's just hollering like a basketball coach nonstop. "Keep going! Yeah baby! That's my girl! Now grind on him! Fuck that dick! Fuck that dick! Keep going!" Jesus H., when Ava Vincent is in reverse cowgirl (sorry, db), I think at this point in her career she knows she should be fucking that dick. I don't think she's going to just stop if you don't shriek "Keep going!" at her. I've only seen a handful of his straight Vivid movies, but there was a bit of this in a "Pornucopia" episode, too, so I kind of assumed it was a trademark. It's gotta annoy the performers, doesn't it? Sorry to veer off-topic, but I was just watching that. And sorry if the "he" and "his" isn't right, I don't know the etiquette on that. [Link]

I wish Chi Chi would post here, he/she is certainly one of the more interesting and busiest directors around. Click to expand Interesting? I suppose drag queens are interesting. Not my cup of tea. Prolific? Yes, definitely. I consider Chi Chi LaRue to be an average (sometimes mediocre) director/producer of gay porn often blessed with a very talented pool of actors at his/her disposal and such a prodigious product output that some significant percentage are bound to be good-to-exceptional. Unlike some other directors -- Bjorn, Kazan, Duroy, to mention three -- I never buy a title because LaRue directed; I buy LaRue titles when stars whose work I am familiar with and like are showcased. Lacking star attraction, the only way I'll buy LaRue titles is if someone else whose judgment I trust highly recommends them -- something that doesn't happen all that often. BTW, Chi Chi LaRue may be the single most prolific gay porn director in existence, quite possibly with five times the output of his/her nearest competitors. (Hundreds of his/her titles are unattributed and many dozens more are directed by other pseudonyms.) That doesn't mean I'm not interested in Str8 Shots -- I am -- but it is the cast that attracts my attention, not LaRue's direction. ~ GaySatyr (ABB) [Link]
dumblonde Senior Member 2352 Posts 7/00	Posted - Dec 21 2004 : 5:40PM I'm not sure how much direction would even be involved for something like this...but that's a big part of its appeal for me. Kperv, this is totally different than the ubiquitous 'jerk-to-pop' seen in straight porn, IMO. When a guy is having sex with a female yet has to stop to pound his pud to get off, that just seems wrong. [Link]

Hard to comprehend. Click to expand I would find a porn stud worrying about gay guys being in the room hard to comprehend. Shyness and self-consciousness aren't winning traits in a porn career, after all. If you stop to think about it, these guys are used to having sex in a room full of people. They're also used to double-teaming a female, so it isn't like they haven't had sex where other guys were involved before. [Link]

As it justly should. When I read the "ya ya" part, it makes it seem like the 'directores' are from Switzerland. Back to the topic, I remember reading something somewhere by Kurt Lockwood, saying that the straight porn companies know that there's a substantial number of gay men who watch straight porn, though the companies don't like to admit it (though they're happy to take money from gay customers). I think Kurt even said he got fan mail from men. This new Chichi Larue movie has a French actor in it, Pascal St. James, who I like a lot. Another reason for me to have a look at it. I hope that some of the internet retailers stock this title for rent. [Link]

Click to expand I'm not sure of the actual mechanics of how they manage to do this, but I imagine it may be easier for "straight" guys to do than rubbing/pumping their dicks together (essentially fucking each other directly by proxy of both being inside the same chick) in a double vaginal/double anal. Just as the softer hardcore always features some girls getting it on with each other, the harder hardcore now features some ..um, intimate swordfighting between the guys, though typically located inside a woman's orifices... Not that there's anything wrong with that. I don't care, I've somehow found I don't at all mind watching DV/DA, but let's not get too stressed about what we're calling "gay or straight"... cheers, scipio [Link]

Ghost Pro Member Creampies, Blowjobs and Asians..... Oh My! 236 Posts 9/04	Posted - Dec 27 2004 : 8:02PM I'm pretty curious as to how this title will do.(And I don't mean bi curious). There was a title years ago from Odyssey Men that used the same concept. It had Sean Michaels and other "straight" porn men performing "hans solo." There is a market for well done male masturbation, but it is considerablly less than other gay genre films. But Channel 1 / Rascal titles have been selling extremely well, so i'm sure most retailers who pick up the company will give it a try. The "straight guy" fantasy can be big business. Just look at Blue Blake. It used to be that the guys in straight titles were not handsome enough to be featured in a gay products. Look at a box from Falcon, Titan, Kristen Bjorn, Bel Ami, etc. You'll see what I mean. Rock hard abs, bulging pecks, handsome faces, huge cocks, etc. The guys in gay features used to always put the straight "shlubs" actors to shame. Hell, the most handsome "straight" actor was Peter North, who started out doing a couple of gay films. But in the last few years, new porn studs have come up through the ranks that have increased the straight male talent looks drastically. Now girls can watch a straight title and actually be attracted to the guy. What a concept. Plus, i'm sure those straight guys are getting less than the standard gay stroker. It should sell, but won't be breakin' any records. ghostpro.com [Link]

Click to expand I'd say the title is one place to start, Str8 Shots obviously points towards the whole "straight trade" thing/fetish that some gay people like. "8 studs from the world of straight porn pull it.. OUT!" is also a bit of a giveaway. If it were marketed towards women the tagline would probably be something simply pointing out that the dvd contains hot guys rather then needing to say that they're specifically from straight porn. That's all I can tell from the cover. cheers, scipio [Link]

You know, how on like ZT discs one side of the slick is HC the other is soft, they could have one side of a reversable cover aimed at the Gay market and the other side aimed at women. Can't see how trying it would hurt, anyway. As to the apparent lack of females, DB, if you mean the lack of input on it in this thread, bear in mind it's located in the middle of threads about DAP and ATOGM, so it's possibly not the most frequently-read section of the forums by many women. scipio [Link]
